On July 16 the RA Court of Appeal heard the case of a free-lance photojournalist
\n Gagik Shamshian, who challenged the ruling of the court of primary jurisdiction
\n of Erebuni and Nubarashen communities of Yerevan. On June 6, 2007 the court
\n gave Shamshian a suspended sentence for 2.5 years of imprisonment. The court
\n sentence was made by Part 2 of Article 178 (“Cheating”) and by Part 1 of Article
\n 179 (“Appropriation or Embezzlement”) of RA Criminal Code. The plaintiff demanded
\n to annul the ruling and to acquit him fully. On its behalf, the Prosecutor’s
\n Office of Erebuni and Nubarashen communities also challenged the sentence of
\n the court of primary jurisdiction, demanding to make the punishment more severe
\n and to sentence Gagik Shamshian to 4 years of imprisonment. <\/p>\n

As it has been reported, the criminal proceedings on the case of Gagik Shamshian
\n were instituted on August 3, 2006 by the Erebuni Investigative Department of
\n the Chief Investigative Division of the RA Police, basing on a number of appeals
\n from citizens. On his behalf, the journalist did not plead guilty on any of
\n the five episodes, qualifying what has happened as a persecution for his professional
\n activities, waged by the Head of Nubarashen community of Yerevan Mher Hovhannisian
\n and his associates. The conflict with them started due to the article, published
\n in “Chorrord Ishkhanutiun” newspaper on July 11, 2006 (the publication told,
\n in particular, about two relatives of Nubarashen community Head, charged with
\n robbery at one of Yerevan banks). The next day Shamshian was assaulted. The
\n Prosecutor’s Office of Erebuni and Nubarashen communities instituted criminal
\n proceedings by Article 164 (“Impeding the legitimate professional activities
\n of a journalist”), Part 1 of Article 176 (“Robbery”) and Part 3 of Article 258
\n (“Public Disorder”) of the RA Criminal Code. However, on November 10, 2006 the
\n investigation of the case was stopped due to the lack of “sufficient evidence
\n proving corpus delicti in the actions of the suspects”. Thus, Gagik Shamshian
\n became a participant of two criminal cases at the same time: on the case, where
\n he was a victim, nobody was punished; on the other case, the journalist became
\n the convict (see details in YPC Weekly Newsletter, June
\n 1-7, 2007<\/a>). <\/p>\n

At the session of July 16 the Court of Appeal secured the claim of the journalist
\n partially, only reducing the suspended sentence to one year. As Gagik Shamshian
\n told YPC, he intends challenging this ruling at RA Court of Cassation. <\/p>\n
